Rev. Roberta Kearney - Interim Pastor
Rev. Kearney began her ministry with us on Sunday, March 22, 2009.  Roberta, who was born in Wisconsin, moved to Pennsylvania with her family as a young teenager, via Seattle Washington.  A graduate of Albright College (in Reading, PA), she received a BA in Social Work and Urban Affairs.


For ten years Roberta responded to God's call on her life by serving in both the Pennsylvania Legislature, and as a Presbyterian elder. Wrestling most of this time with a call to attend seminary, she was a student at two Presbyterian seminaries, first attending Columbia in Decatur, GA, then graduating from Princeton Seminary with a Master of Divinity degree in 1993. Roberta enjoys being out of doors, reading and board games.

Her joy in ministry is walking and talking with people as they explore, grow and struggle with matters of life and faith. Roberta loves helping people discover more about themselves and Christ's love for them. Nothing brings her greater joy than serving with people who find themselves coming alive in Christ, excited, and ready to serve Christ in the World.
